Hormones {fibroblast growth factor}| (FGF) can support cerebral-cortex neurons, especially striate-cortex neurons. At high concentrations, FGF enhances neurogenesis. At low concentrations, FGF increases neuron and glia survival rates. Fibroblast growth factor 8 organizes cortex. Human genes {fibroblast-growth-factor receptor L1 gene} (FGFRL1 gene) can be similar to flatworm genes {nou-darake gene} {Ndk gene} that repress neuron division.
